This script runs analyses on data from study 1. Specifically, it compares data from three groups of participants who underwent escapable stress (EC), yoked inescapable stress (YC), or a control condition (CC), respectively. Here, we use the terms “group” and “condition” interchangeably. Measurements under investigation comprised reaction times (RTs) and ratings under acute stress (stressor aversiveness, control, exhaustion, frustration, helplessness) as well as pre-post changes in affective state (STADI and PANAS questionnaires), effects on working memory (reading span), and escape behaviour (activity, exploration, escapes, efficiency).
In total, the sample consisted of N = 80 participants with n = 27 in CC, n = 27 in EC, and n = 26 in YC.
##
## Pearson's Chi-squared test
##
## data: demo$condition and demo$sex
## X-squared = 0.03256, df = 2, p-value = 0.9839
There were no a priori group differences in male-female ratio.
Because residuals were not normally distributed, we employed the Kruskal-Wallis test instead of a one-way ANOVA.
##
## Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test
##
## data: age_sess2 by condition
## Kruskal-Wallis chi-squared = 6.518, df = 2, p-value = 0.03843
There were some outliers and we checked for the 2 extreme cases but rerunning all analyses without those did not change the results, so we kept them.
There were no outliers with respect to working memory IQ.

There were no differences in stress durations between EC and YC because YC participants were yoked to EC participants. Very slight timing inaccurracies are due to program execution differences. EC and CC performed at ceiling, responding fast enough to each cue as evidenced in mean stress duration well below the 15s maximum in each trial. Thus, there were no group differences in durations.
There were outliers with particularly low aversiveness ratings which we excluded from this analysis because they affected the results. However, since they did not affect subsequent analyses, we included them in those.

Both EC and YC rated the stressor as very aversive (global M = 5.744898). Mean aversiveness ratings did not differ between groups. Stressor aversiveness ratings slightly increased over time. There was no sex effect (at least not if outliers with very low ratings - who happened to be mostly male - were excluded).
There were some outliers with respect to perceived control but excluding them did not affect results, so we kept them.

We observed group differences in perceived control in the expected direction: YC reported lowest, EC middle, CC highest perceived control. There was a trend effect of time and perceived control decreased slightly over time.
There were 2 outliers but only one was excluded from analysis due to exceptionally long RT.

Both stress groups reported sig. greater exhaustion compared to the control group, however, they did not differ sig. from each other. Men in EC reported less exhaustion.
There were a few outliers but none of them were extreme and excluding them did not affect overall results (although it improved statistical significance), so we kept them.

YC showed highest levels of frustration followed by EC, then CC. Only YC showed an increase in frustration over time. Men in EC reported less frustration.

Both stress groups reported sig. greater helplessness compared to the control group, however, they did not differ sig. from each other. Men in EC reported less helplessness.
We excluded two outliers with particularly high pre stress induction STADI scores that affected the results significantly.

Depressive mood and anxiety significantly increased from pre to post stress induction. A significant interaction of group x time indicated that this increase was limited to stress groups, whereas scores did not change in CC. Women in EC displayed greater increase in STADI scores compared to men.
There were two outliers but excluding them did not change results on positive mood changes, so we kept them.

Across groups, positive mood decreased from pre to post stress exposure. No significant group differences were observed. There was a trend for sex effects with men in YC showing less decrease in positive mood from pre to post stress induction.
There were some outliers with respect to negative mood but we did not exclude any participants.

There were no sig. group differences but an overall increase in negative mood. Further, we observed a significant group x time interaction with EC showing an increase in negative mood, whereas the increase in YC did not reach significance and CC rather showed a decrease, albeit non-sig. Women in EC and YC reported greater increase in negative mood compared to men.
There were some outliers with respect to activity but none of them represented extreme deviations, so we kept them.

There were no group differences. Activity was greater in the free exploration phase, without stress exposure compared to the stress phase. Further, activity increased across trials, and differences between the phases were most pronounced at later stages of the experiment.
There were no outliers with respect to number of escapes.
Because residuals were not normally distributed, we employed the Kruskal-Wallis test instead of a one-way ANOVA.

There were no significant group differences in escapes.
There were some outliers with respect to exploration but none of them represented extreme deviations, so we kept them.

There were no significant group differences. Exploration was greater in the free exploration phase, without stress exposure compared to the stress phase. Also, exploration increased across trials.
There were some outliers with respect to efficiency but excluding them did not affect the results, so we kept them.
Because residuals were not normally distributed, we employed the Kruskal-Wallis test instead of a one-way ANOVA.

Groups did not differ in behavioural efficiency.
There were some outliers with respect to working memory PCL scores and we excluded them since this affected results significantly.
